| Sumario: | Abstract Muscle atrophy is one of the serious complications of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Dysregulation of mitochondrial quality control (MQC) process, including decrease mitochondrial biogenesis, impair mitochondrial dynamics and induce activation of mitophagy, play an important role in mediating muscle wasting. This study aimed to observe effects of Jian-Pi-Yi-Shen (JPYS) decoction on muscle atrophy in CKD rats and explore its possible mechanism on regulation of MQC processes. The 5/6 nephrectomised rats were randomly allocated into 2 groups: CKD group and JPYS group. Besides, a sham-operated rats as sham group. All rats were treated for 6 weeks. Results showed that administration of JPYS decoction prevented body weight loss, muscle loss, muscle fiber size decrease, muscle protein degradation, and increased muscle protein systhesis. In addition, JPYS decoction increased the mitochondrial content and biogenesis proteins, and down-regulated the autophagy and mitophagy proteins. Furthermore, JPYS decoction increased mitochondrial fusion proteins, while decreased mitochondrial fission proteins. In conclusion, JPYS decoction increased mitochondrial content and biogenesis, restore the balance between fission and fusion, and inhibited autophagy-lysosome pathway (mitophagy). Collectively, our data showed that JPYS decoction to be beneficial to muscle atrophy in CKD, which might be associated with the modulation of MQC process. |
